24″ STANCE X CULT collab cruiser

7 08 2023

Cult and Stance recently teamed up for a “street ready” collab that includes Stance socks and a 24″ cruiser as part of the package.

The bike features a black colorway on the front and cool intricate design on the mid to back portion.

Somewhat suprising, spec-wise, is the “100% aluminum” frame. For a supposedly street-oriented ride you would think it would be cro-mo. Surely, the skatepark photo on the Stance page would lead you to believe that. With that being said the fork is 100% cro-mo…so you have that durability up front.

However, the aluminum frame makes more sense when you look back at previous CULT collabs (like the Duffman cruiser). Those collabs also featured aluminum frames…maybe that’s CULT’s signature move for 24″ collabs? It sure seems that way.

Definitely the lighter option for quick street rips though…and maybe that’s the intent. The vintage loop tail rear end is a nice touch too.

Unfortunately, the Stance and Cult websites do not offer up much in the way of details on the geometry front but it does include a parts/spec breakdown. (Check it out here.)

If you’re in the market for a distinctive-looking 24″ and/or are a Cult fan, this bike should be right up your alley. Peep the pics and head over to Stance and/or Cult for more details.

Finding that Commonground

14 04 2016

Back in December, we had a look at Commonground Bikes‘ uncommon approach to the 24.

As you might recall, rather than taking the well-trodden path of many other companies…that is, scaling up a bigger version of 20″ geometry…Commonground took a different approach.

Commonground borrowed elements of 26″ dirtjumpers (slack headtubes, low bottom brackets) and scaled it down to a 24″ version (while still retaining many familiar “BMX-y” elements).

Have a look at that previous post if you want to see how the Commonground setup compares, side-by-side, to a typical BMX cruiser.

Of course, words and images are great but it’s always nice to see how a bike works “in the field”…or in this case, at the trails.

As luck would have it, Commonground dropped a video edit today that explains a bit more about the Commonground concept along with some good riding action.

Check it out.
